Apology accepted.

Perhaps we should now return to examining closely the reasons why we tend to get the political representation we deserve and why we're never satisfied with that representation. I'll offer the first two possibilities: we expect our politicians to be clones of ourselves, and we refuse to become the politicians we want.

I am guilty of both.
I think its because power corrupts. Even the best politicians tend to forget who voted for them and why.
